I just read The New Jim Crow (I'm late) and it makes a pretty strong case the USA prison industrial complex/drug war is simply an extension of Jim Crow since drug laws are not enforced equally and the Supreme Court through a series of decisions has made it so the prosecutors and law enforcement have to admit to racism to show that anti-racism laws have been broken and they cannot be forced to reveal any evidence that shows this via discovery, overturning much of the post civil war/civil rights reforms. It's a crazy catch-22. I've heard there is a simpler way that does not consider race that would level the college admissions playing field, make it so there has to be equal admissions based on income level per zip code, but that would kills the grandfather clauses most colleges use to get relatives of graduates entry.
